Exchange Educator Interim Authorization Renewal

Preparing to Apply

Am I in the Right Place?

This checklist is for applicants who are seeking to renew an exchange educator interim authorization and who have not previously done so. You may apply to renew your authorization any time within 6 months of expiration, but no sooner. If you are seeking to renew a standalone interim authorization, please review the other checklists and make the appropriate selection.

Allow ample time to request any third party transcripts or other documentation.

Application Fee:

$90.00

Authorization Expires:

1 year from date of issue

Checklist

Identification

In most cases, additional fingerprinting is not required for renewal applications.

If you already hold a valid, CDE-issued educational credential and have consistently maintained an active credential (authorization or license) since you submitted your fingerprints, you can skip this step. We reserve the right to evaluate your application for adherence to the fingerprint requirements and will notify you by email should any follow-up be needed.

If you have submitted fingerprints for CDE credentialing in the past, but allowed all credentials to lapse and have held no active credential for a period exceeding 1 year, you must submit a new set of fingerprints.
